THE ALTERNATE WORLD WHERE YOUR SPIRIT DWELLS?

Forty-five years ago, I brought my young family to a small farming community 60 miles north of Seattle to pastor a fledgling church. Our town is in a valley nourished for centuries by river water overflowing and depositing an excellent rich soil. 95% of our industry is farming. We grow a wide variety of vegetables, including fruit trees and various grains. However, we are known Worldwide for our tulips.

For centuries, the nation of the Netherlands dominated and controlled the tulip industry. At one point in their history, at the height of a "tulip bubble," one bulb sold for the price of a house. With worldwide migration, some tulip growers found their way to our small valley. For the last three decades, we have been competitors to the Netherlands, sometimes passing their output of tulips.

Every year in the month of Easter, 250,000 people drive our little country roads, taking pictures of tulips and buying sacks of bulbs to take home.

The point of this trip down memory lane is to bring your attention to what makes all of this possible. I drove out across the valley a few weeks ago, and I'm always amazed at how they can take a piece of ground that is so ugly and make it flat and smooth before they plant it with a new crop.

They go through the ground with several different types of plows. Once a year or so, they will take a deep plow that will go down several feet, bring up the soil, and turn it over so the hidden nutrients will be on top again.

Then, they take one special plow after another, breaking it down until it is ready to plant.

I have brought your attention to all of this for one purpose so that you would take your deep plow through Ephesians in the first, second, and third chapters.

If you do that, I'm convinced you will see something you've never seen before, even though you have read it many times.

The message the Holy Spirit wants to say today is how real your life in the heavenly realm is. According to Ephesians, your spirit dwells in another realm—some call this "bilocation" where we live in two places at once.

These are the mysteries that God wants us to search out and understand.

Let's plow through Ephesians in these next few days to see what God will reveal to us.

Today is a good time to start.
